Buck Creek Trail contains approximately 3 miles of walking and biking paths with a 1.5 mile linear main trail. It will connect two major parks: Buck Creek Park and Warrior Park. There will be three trail heads to access the nature trail. Two will be located at the existing parks (701 Sixth Avenue South and 100 Depot Street). The third trail head parking lot will be near the YMCA and old Buck Creek Mill site. A new Senior Center will be constructed near this site. The linear trail topography is user friendly and consists of natural surfacing. This segment will easily accommodate strollers, bikes, pets, and seniors. There are five bridges on the trail with the associated handrails and approach ramps.

Points of interest along the trail include a water fall behind the Buck Creek Mill property. A replica Pavilion (Grand Stand) will be built close to the water fall on the island. Other points of interest will be the Blue Hole and an underground spring that flows constantly.
